Every day, after dealing with the company's affairs and when it was time to get off work, Xu Zixi and Yan Yincheng would get in the car together, pick up their two kids from the kindergarten, and then head home.
The two kids had been studying in the kindergarten for some time. Smart and cute, they got along well with their classmates and made quite a few friends.
Every time school was over, a group of kids could be seen walking the two out of the school gate. At first, there were mostly girls, but later, more and more little boys joined in.
When they got home, Xu Zixi would find that the kids' schoolbags were filled with snacks stuffed in by their classmates!
Moreover, the kids could remember the names of every classmate who gave them gifts clearly.
This showed that they were really happy in the kindergarten!
At night, after lulling the two kids to sleep, Xu Zixi would go to the archive room and look through the materials left by Mr. Tang one by one, hoping to find a glimmer of hope for Yan Yincheng to regain his sight.
Yan Yincheng wasn't idle either. He privately asked someone to investigate the people who had appeared near the manor during the few days when Mr. Tang was critically ill, trying to find out the inhumane thief who had stolen things while Mr. Tang was on his deathbed.
Time passed quietly. More than half a month later, the police in Haicheng announced that Zhao Quanjing had been executed.
Maybe there was really a divine will. On the day when Zhao Quanjing was executed, the weather in Haicheng was extremely nice. The sun was shining brightly, and the sky was cloud - free. A few dolphins were frolicking in the southern sea area. It was obviously a good day.
Fang Ruiyang came to the outside of the execution ground where Zhao Quanjing was to be executed.
He couldn't go in to watch, but even standing under the high wall and looking at the insignia not far away, he couldn't contain his excitement.
Some people said that the hardest thing in life was not being able to choose one's family and parents. When he was once scolded as the son of a hostess and a bastard, he had resented it.
When he learned that his biological father was actually the chairman of the Zhao Group, he had also had some unrealistic fantasies, hoping that one day he could change his fate.
But the facts had repeatedly told him that fate had played the cruelest joke on him.
If he hadn't met a group of lovely mentors and friends, his future would have only been deeper and deeper in the quagmire, and he would have eventually become a scapegoat and sacrifice for Zhao Quanjing. And Zhao Quanjing's end today would have been his.
People really couldn't choose their birth and parents, but they could choose what kind of "person" to be.
He was Fang, not Zhao. From then on, he would just be himself.
After standing under the high wall for a long time, Fang Ruiyang turned around and left.
...
Today was really a good day. The Pei family held a wedding for Pei Weiwei and her boyfriend Duan Jia at the Haicheng International Hotel.
Pei Jun was actually still dissatisfied with this marriage. However, seeing that Duan Jia hadn't left when the Pei family was in trouble and had taken good care of the miscarrying Pei Weiwei, in the end, he still acquiesced to their union.
Since Duan Jia wasn't a rich second - generation but an orphan whose job had to be arranged by the Pei family, his marriage to Pei Weiwei was like him marrying into the Pei family. Therefore, not many guests were invited to this wedding.
However, as a partner of the "City of Hope", Xu Zixi and Yan Yincheng were still invited by Pei Mingyuan.
Xu Zixi originally didn't want to attend this meaningless wedding, but after thinking about it, she finally went to the hotel for the banquet with Yan Yincheng, bringing gifts.
There were only 20 tables at this wedding banquet. Xu Zixi and Yan Yincheng's seats were arranged next to the main guest seats.
After all, it was the wedding of the Pei family's daughter. The wedding venue was quite lavishly decorated. The style mainly consisted of fresh pink roses, balloons, and tulle, full of the romantic atmosphere of a little girl, which was quite in line with Pei Weiwei's lovestruck personality.
As the young master of the Pei family and Pei Weiwei's elder brother, Pei Mingyuan had been responsible for receiving guests at the scene. He wasn't alone. There was a quite beautiful woman standing beside him, helping him.
Xu Zixi always felt that the woman looked a bit familiar. After thinking carefully, she remembered that they had met in a revolving restaurant. At that time, Pei Mingyuan seemed to be on a date with her.
So they were really together. I wonder if this girl likes Pei Mingyuan's Ducati motorcycle?
"What are you staring at so intently?" beside her, Yan Yincheng said discontentedly, "I was talking to you just now. Didn't you listen at all?"
Xu Zixi smiled and scratched the palm of his hand: "I just found that General Manager Pei seems to be getting married soon, so I couldn't help but take a few more looks at his girlfriend."
"Your fiancé is right beside you, but you still have the mood to care about others. It seems that I've really been too lenient with you recently." Yan Yincheng said.
Xu Zixi quickly pinched him and looked around. Finding that no one had heard their conversation, she let out a sigh of relief. She quickly changed the subject to stop his loose - tongued mouth: "Brother Cheng, what were you saying to me just now?"
"You really weren't listening." Yan Yincheng said aggrievedly, "Forget it. It's not a big deal. I'll just think about it myself."
He was being so sarcastic. He must be up to no good again. Xu Zixi was just about to reach out and pinch his face like she did to the kids when the wedding ceremony officially began.
After a beautiful wedding march, introduced by the wedding emcee, Pei Mingyuan walked in with Pei Weiwei in a white wedding dress from the entrance of the banquet hall.
— Since Pei Jun was still in a wheelchair and had difficulty moving, Pei Mingyuan took on the role of the father.
Duan Jia in a groom's suit stood on the stage, took his bride from Pei Mingyuan's hands, and then the wedding process began.
I don't know if it was just Xu Zixi's illusion, but she always felt that Duan Jia's smile seemed a bit forced. Compared with Pei Weiwei, who was obviously acting like a little girl, his attitude was much more perfunctory.
This made Xu Zixi think of when she attended the wedding of Yan Zhen and Yuan Yaer in Fengcheng. Yan Zhen also seemed a bit absent - minded.
Tsk, do men get impatient with these ritualistic wedding processes?
"This kind of wedding is so unoriginal. It's so boring." Xu Zixi whispered. The speaker might have meant nothing, but the listener had other thoughts. Yan Yincheng's ears twitched slightly, and he couldn't help but hold Xu Zixi's hand tightly.
Actually, what he wanted to ask just now was which was better in terms of decoration, this wedding or their engagement banquet?
He wanted to find out her preferences from her to prepare for their future wedding.
But hearing her complain that this wedding was boring, Yan Yincheng had another idea.
Maybe he should give her a creative and unique wedding that would make her and everyone in the world remember it for a lifetime.
But how should he do it?
It seemed that he had to discuss it with others.
